It’s
the era of artistic resurrection of 80’s indie bands and artists: together
with great albums from e.g. The Fall and Gang of Four or new projects like
Githead of Wire’s Colin Newman Belgian Indie Rock Godfathers Perverted
(founded
in 1984) kick back with an exciting new release breathing hope,
resistance and vitality.
In
their 20-year existence they released 7 great albums (previously as Perverted By
Desire). Their 8th is called 'Rope Skipping For Fireflies' and is
recorded in the beautiful setting of the French Pyrenees, in a place called
Mantet, 80 km east of Dali’s centre of the world, La gare de Perpignan.
Completely isolated from the outside world, Perverted have crafted their most
diverse album yet. Their trademark guitar sound remains intact, but is spiced up
with influences from all over the globe.
On
the guest list amongst others female singer 2M, the beats and samples from
mister Raindeer (who is doing really well recently in Tokamat Fusion Test
Reactor) and another contribution by Elvis Peeters (from the infamous band Aroma
di Amore, nominated for two literature prizes, Gouden Uil and Libris). Dolf
Planteijdt (The Ex, De Kift) recorded and mixed the album together with Zlaya
Hadic (Sonic Youth, Low, Motorpsycho, Tortoise).
As
an extra their brilliant debut record 'Dance Music For Dying Soldiers' is
added. 'Dance Music...', the record that made long time Perverted-producer
Kramer sign the band to his Shimmy Disc-label, was previously only released on
vinyl and unavailable for ages. So a brand new and a very old
'Perverted'-classic in one package, now on Labelman.
